First, I know this is long, but please read it! I just need your alls opinions. It would mean so much to me!
So I went to Kings Island with 5 of my really good friends from Louisville, along with what I thought was another "friend" of mine from Powell, a suburb of Colombus. We will call her Taylor. I had been talking to Taylor for over a year, we played Xbox online together, Skyped, iMessaged, Facebooked, Instagramed. I thought this would be a good time to meet her because I was in such a large group of people i knew well in a very public place.
We got to the park around 12, Taylor got there around 1:45. We ate, rode Woodstock, The Racers, and then went to The Beast. We waited in line for about 15 minutes. I put my bag in the cubby for train 2. I was the last one to put my bag in and then the ride OP closed the bin. We came back, I jumped out and jogged to the bin, I watched everyone grab their bags and I did not see anyone take mine. I went to get mine and it was gone. Taylor and the rest of my group was already halfway down the exit ramp. I ran to them to try to get them to stop everyone so I could go down there and check every person one by one, but they couldn't here me yelling. I went back to the ride OP and asked him to check for my bag. He lift up bag after bag in every bin but none were mine. I ran back to my group and I immediately tried using the FindMyiPhone app to track my iPhone. In under 2 minutes both me and Katie's iPhones had already been turned off. Me and Katie were then escorted to security where we both filed separate police reports. While we were filling out our paperwork the officer came back in and said a sweeper found our wallets. I got mine back and the only thing taken out were my credit cards and cash, while Taylor's was completely empty. Taylor also got her keys back. Suspicion #1, why would Taylor get her keys back but not mine. That doesn't make sense. I think they were going to try to find my car, open it and look for valuables. After we finished filing the police reports we met up with the rest of our group out on a bench by the front gate. Taylor kept borrowing my friend's phone to call her "mom". She was cussing and flipping out for a good 10-15 minutes on the phone, but when my friend got her phone back she checked and Taylor had only made two phone calls to the same number, the first lasting 29 seconds, and the second lasting 31 seconds. We called back the number and it went to voicemail. It was a personalized voicemail and it was indeed Taylor's mom, the last names matched and it sounded like a middle aged woman. Suspicion #2: Why would Taylor fake freak out on the phone? I think she called her accomplice for the rest of the time and they were arguing over what to do with my stuff and then just deleted the call from the phone's call history. I am having my friend go online and check her call records to make sure. After that, Taylor left without saying bye to the rest of the group. She just left. Suspicion #3: Why would she leave right after getting out of security? Wouldn't she want to stay to see if they found anything else?
We left around 8, while Taylor left around 4:30. On our ride home my friends decided to try and call Taylor's phone, she answered. We asked who it was and she said "Oh, it's Taylor ****". We hung up. We wanted to make sure she wasn't just using an old phone she had lying around the house, so we sent a message from my friend's iPhone, it went through as an iMessage and showed "Read 8:49 PM". Suspicion #4: It was odd enough for her to have a phone with the same phone number as she had AT&T, she "lost" her sim card when her phone was "stolen". How would she have a new sim card already? And how would she already have a new iPhone in less than 4 hours after it happened? Then something very weird happened. Today I received a phone call from Clintonville OH Police Department stating they found my credit cards and Taylor's credit cards ditched on the side of a highway. I texted Taylor and asked where Clintonville is, as I live in KY, not OH. She told me she had never heard of it before and that it was apparently 30 minutes SOUTH of Colombus. I Google Mapped it and it was North of Colombus, right by Powell. Taylor lives in Powell. Suspicion #5: That is a little too convenient that the cards were found less than 10 minutes from her. How has she not heard of Clintonville when she lives 10 minutes from it. She also stated that her mom had already purchased her a new iPhone, but when I asked her to send me a picture of the receipt she said that "You should trust me! You know me! I would never steal anything from you! Please just trust me!" After finding out about the credit cards and where they were found I once again contacted Kings Island and explained to them why I suspected Taylor played a part in the theft of my bag and belongings. I asked if they would look over the security tape footage again and see if they could find any evidence of Taylor meeting up or talking with someone else before she met up with me. They said they would take another look and would give me a call back. What do you all think? Guilty or coincidence?
